Since the invention of the laser, our fascination with the photon
has led to one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing fields of
technology. As the reality of all-optical systems quickly comes
into focus, it is more important than ever to have a thorough
understanding of light and the optical components used to control
it. Comprising chapters drawn from the author's highly anticipated
book Photonics: Principles and Practices, Light and Optics:
Principles and Practices offers a detailed and focused treatment
for anyone in need of authoritative information on this critical
area underlying photonics. Using a consistent approach, the author
leads you step-by-step through each topic. Each skillfully crafted
chapter first explores the theoretical concepts of each topic, and
then demonstrates how these principles apply to real-world
applications by guiding you through experimental cases illuminated
with numerous illustrations. The book works systematically through
light, light and shadow, thermal radiation, light production, light
intensity, light and color, the laws of light, plane mirrors,
spherical mirrors, lenses, prisms, beamsplitters, light passing
through optical components, optical instruments for viewing
applications, polarization of light, optical materials, and
laboratory safety. Containing several topics presented for the
first time in book form, Light and Optics: Principles and Practices
is simply the most modern, comprehensive, and hands-on text in the
field.
